5027 to FIRST Robotics Champs!
We are members from Andrew Hill High School's FIRST Robotics Team 5027, located in San Jose, California, and we have qualified to the FIRST Worlds Championship. We are a second year rookie team that would love to take this opportunity. However we lack the funding for lodging and transportation to St. Louis, Missouri. As our school is located in a low-income neighborhood, we know that the students' families will not be able to afford the costs.
As our team is very new and fairly small, World Championships will help our team grow. Going to this event will also allow us to give our younger members something to aim for in future years and will open doors that will allow us to expand the program within our community and we hope you will support us along our journey!
Even if you cannot make a donation, please share this page with your friends and family!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to our 300+ donors (and more thanks to those who saw our story through this campaign and news reports and donated to us through other means)!
We apologize for not updating the day before we left for St. Louis, but we've been at the World Championships since last Tuesday and we're back in San Jose, California. Due to all the support we've received, we were able to take 12 students and 6 mentors along with us (originally we were going to bring 6-8 students).
The event at St. Louis was such a new experience for all our students and a few of our mentors. We got to interact with teams from all around the world, watch some pretty exciting matches, learn about scholarship opportunities, and so much more. The team also made it to the quarter finals in our division at Champs (Newton)! Congratulations to the team for a great season and again, a huge thanks to all those who helped us along the way!
Special shoutouts to Team 2643 from Santa Teresa High School for being our mentor team for two years along with Team 254 from Bellarmine Prep and Team 1678 from Davis Senior High School for being on our alliance at the Silicon Valley Regionals!

I am happy to see this surpass the goal! I donated a few days ago before when it was approx only at $4k, and I come back just 3 days later & it's over the goal. Fantastic- hope you kids take all your club members and/or use the extra funds to support your robotics club next year!
I have 2 kids that graduated from A.Hill and went on to college. Im glad to see so much support from the community. Go get them!
Good luck from Vickie Roberts, Class of 1990.
